Error Locator

[VONDY]

Is there a place where error's are written to when a machine has crashed, when your system crashes while programming etc.? I would like to start keeping track of both and have not found a spot where this info my be written to.

Vondy, I don't know if this is what you're looking for exactly, but you can set PC-DMIS to dump info to a text file (commonly called debug.txt but you can name it what you wish). Often times, if you run into a repeatable problem, tech support will ask you for this file to track down what exactly caused it.

Select Edit | Preferences | Machine Interface Setup, and then select the Debug tab.

See the "Generating a Debug File" inside the PC-DMIS Help file for more information.

I am running 3.5mr2, I have Edit | Preferences | but there is not a "Machine Interface Setup" option.

Will an off-line machine have this option?

I think he ment "CMM INTERFACE SETUP"
